Overview
Conducted literature review and field research on the major factors that constrain the popularization of electric buses (EBs)
Developed a deterministic optimization (DO) model, with a focus on minimizing the total charging cost and optimizing the overnight charging schedule of the EBs, under the time-of-use electricity prices
Extended DO to a robust optimization (RO) model by incorporating the uncertainty of EBs’ remaining power when arriving at the charging station
Converted and simplified the proposed RO into a feasible problem using Affine Transformation and Duality Theorem; • Solved the model numerically using the Gurobi optimizer, followed by conducting a real-world case study and sensitivity analysis to examine the model
Completed a first-author conference paper, presented at the 100th Annual Meeting of Transportation Research Board
